About Sue White (site founder)

Founder of babieswhotravel.com, Sue White, has always been a traveller. As an Aussie, it’s almost mandatory: after all, Australians who aren’t willing to take on long journeys by plane, train or automobile don’t get to do too much exploring.

When her son was born, Sue knew her travel itch would still need regular scratching. But how do you travel with a baby under one and still have a good time? Is it even possible? Where do busy new parents find out all the practical details that go with the first few trips? Aisle or window? Pram or no pram? And how on earth do you carry it all?

babieswhotravel.com is the result of Sue figuring all of this that out on behalf of other parents. It took a year of researching and reviewing, during which she and her baby son travelled both Australia and Europe. They did house sits and house swaps; cat sitting and car journeys; took on 24 hours flights and short domestic jaunts; travelled with friends, solo and family members; and cycled, drove, flew and train-ed their way across seven countries, all before his first birthday.

The result? Over 50 practical tips organised in a comprehensive A-Z of travel for newborns, infants and babies under 1.

And happy travels!

*PS. Gender can be a pesky thing when it comes to the English language. We love them all, so we’ve alternated between using “he” and “she” in our posts. Some tips say “he”, others say “she”. It’s a tried and tested solution from children’s authors, so that’s good enough for us. Don’t let it distract you!
